Stella has life under control and that’s the way she likes it. For 25 years she’s been trusted assistant to a legendary fashion designer. But when her boss dies, suddenly everything she loves seems to vanish. Stella is lost – until one day she comes across a house swap website and sees a beautiful old villa in a southern Italian village. Could she really exchange her poky London flat for that?
What was intended as just a break becomes much more as Stella finds herself trying on a stranger’s life.
“So much to love about this book. I love the way the food makes you salivate for Italy. I love the matrix of complicated women that interfere in each other’s lives … Reading this felt like a welcome ticket to southern Italy.”
